A little girl on a street corner Worth nothing with diamond eyes A little boy who lives in a nightmare Daddy's gonna feed him the tears he cries [Bridge] A thousand broken dreams Running through my mind We'll rise above the screams We'll be cruel to be kind [Chorus] When the tough guys tumble The city's gonna rumble When the tough guys tumble The city's gonna rumble A lullaby song for the children He's the star of the story, is a circus clown He's the guy with s chip on his shoulder He's the guys that's running the town [Bridge] [Chorus] [Solo] [Chorus]
